I would definitely class Wolf Creek as horror; I actually found it difficult to watch - I think because it felt like it could really happen. Did you know it's a real place (Wolfe Creek Crater in Western Australia) & the movie was based on several real life Australian crimes? I like the remakes of The Hills Have Eyes but I haven't seen the originals.

Yes I knew it was a real place and the first film is based mostly on a couple of crimes like you say, one where the only survivor was believed to have committed the murders herself as her story was similar to the film but they never found the place she described it took place, another I think where a man fitting Mick Taylor's description went to trial, I can't recall much now but do remember looking it up after seeing the first film

Yes I knew it was a real place and also of the real life events which it's based on, one was the only survivor and that she was suspected of the murders as they never found the place she described, another was about a man who's portrayed by Mick Taylor in the film, I remember reading up on them after watching the first film. You are right about the fact that it could so easily happen.
The original Hills Have Eyes is almost an exact remake but the remake of the second film is completely different.
